Mid-wave infrared (MWIR) cameras for large number pixels are extremely expensive compared with their counterparts in visible light, thus, super-resolution imaging (SRI) for MWIR by increasing imaging pixels has always been a research hotspot in recent years. Over the last decade, with the extensively investigation of the compressed sensing (CS) method, focal plane array (FPA) based compressive imaging in MWIR developed rapidly for SRI. This paper presents a long-distance super-resolution FPA compressive imaging in MWIR with improved calibration method and imaging effect. By the use of CS, we measure and calculate the calibration matrix of optical system efficiently and precisely, which improves the imaging contrast and signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) compared with previous work. We also achieved the 4x4 times super-resolution reconstruction of the long-distance objects which reaches the limit of the system design in our experiment.

Based on compressive sampling techniques and short exposure imaging, super-resolution imaging with thermal light is experimentally demonstrated exploiting the sparse prior property of images for standard conventional imaging system. Differences between super-resolution imaging demonstrated in this letter and super-resolution ghost imaging via compressive sampling (arXiv. Quant-ph/0911.4750v1 (2009)), and methods to further improve the imaging quality are also discussed.

For ghost imaging, pursuing high resolution images and short acquisition times required for reconstructing images are always two main goals. We report an image reconstruction algorithm called compressive sampling (CS) reconstruction to recover ghost images. By CS reconstruction, ghost imaging with both super-resolution and a good signal-to-noise ratio can be obtained via short acquisition times. Both effect influencing and approaches further improving the resolution of ghost images via CS reconstruction, relationship between ghost imaging and CS theory are also discussed.

Much more image details can be resolved by improving the systems imaging resolution and enhancing the resolution beyond the systems Rayleigh diffraction limit is generally called super-resolution. By combining the sparse prior property of images with the ghost imaging method, we demonstrated experimentally that super-resolution imaging can be nonlocally achieved in the far field even without looking at the object. Physical explanation of super-resolution ghost imaging via compressive sampling and its potential applications are also discussed.
Single-photon light detection and ranging (LiDAR), offering single-photon sensitivity and picosecond time resolution, has been widely adopted for active imaging applications. Long-range active imaging is a great challenge, because the spatial resolution degrades significantly with the imaging range due to the diffraction limit of the optics, and only weak echo signal photons can return but mixed with a strong background noise. Here we propose and demonstrate a photon-efficient LiDAR approach that can achieve sub-Rayleigh resolution imaging over long ranges. This approach exploits fine sub-pixel scanning and a deconvolution algorithm tailored to this long-range application. Using this approach, we experimentally demonstrated active three-dimensional (3D) single-photon imaging by recognizing different postures of a mannequin model at a stand-off distance of 8.2 km in both daylight and night. The observed spatial (transversal) resolution is about 5.5 cm at 8.2 km, which is about twice of the systems resolution. This also beats the optical systems Rayleigh criterion. The results are valuable for geosciences and target recognition over long ranges.
While design of high performance lenses and image sensors has long been the focus of camera development, the size, weight and power of image data processing components is currently the primary barrier to radical improvements in camera resolution. Here we show that Deep-Learning- Aided Compressive Sampling (DLACS) can reduce operating power on camera-head electronics by 20x. Traditional compressive sampling has to date been primarily applied in the physical sensor layer, we show here that with aid from deep learning algorithms, compressive sampling offers unique power management advantages in digital layer compression.
